The beaver pounced as a man went to take its photograph after spotting the animal on the side of a road during a fishing trip.
A fisherman has been bitten to death by a beaver after trying to take its photograph.
The man was on a fishing trip at Lake Shestakov in Belarus with two friends when they spotted the animal on the side of the road.
He stopped so that he could take a picture but as he approached the beaver it pounced on him, biting him in the thigh.
His friends attempted to stem the flow of blood from the wound but the animal’s bite had severed a main artery and the man, who came from Brest, bled to death.
Beaver attacks are rare and according to experts those animals that do go for humans are usually rabid.
However, they are not unheard off.

Anyone that has ever seen what a beaver can do to a mature tree will know to stay well clear of them.

It is the unfortunate habit
Of the beaver to breed like a rabbit.
..One can say without question,
..This leads to congestion
In the habitats beavers inhabit.
A crowded beaver is an an angry beaver.

I heard it this way: “Ward, you were awfully hard on the Beaver last night”
That line was used in “The Revenge of the Nerds!
